Things to do in Milwaukee...

[rrc]

Taking a buddy and my 12 and 14 yr old sons to Monday's Cubs-Brewers game.

We're going to have 3-4 hours to kill before the game..looking for some suggestions.

Anything worthwhile along the lakefront or around Marquette?

Any and all info is greatly appreciated.

you can take a free tour of the Miller brewing plant.
its a fun way to kill a few hours.

head over to the zoo as well. great way to walk around and kill time.

or go over to "The Domes" which is an ecological site with plants and birds and stuff.

Do the zoo and stay far, far away from Marquette and the area around the University. Not the nicest part of town and really nothing to see or do, either.

Harley Davidson just opened a new museum in Milwaukee.
It is supposed to be very cool.

Haven't been on the brewery tour since college, so we'll probably give that a go.

Thanks again.

Go to Pick n Save (plenty in th area.) National Avenue around the 50th block I believe. Pick up some sandwich stuff or brats (someone will let you use their grill there) and some soda and go to the parking lot about 3 hours before the game. Set up some chairs and you will kill 3 hours. Bring a ball and glove for you and the kids or a football. They will have much more fun in the parking lot than in the brewery or zoo. Trust me.
